friends on an excursion, and while
on Goat Island she missed her companions
and met the Indian and asked him to
assist her in looking for them. He made
himself so agreeable that an acquaintance
followed. He told her he was Spaniard
The acquaintance ripened into love, and
lately arrangements were made by letter

WASHINGTON, December 11th.-People
interested in the legislation that may come
before the Public Lands Committee may
be interested to know that the forfeiture Of
the railroad land grants, except two OF
three aggravated cases, will not be pushed
as vigorously as last year, but that the pre-.

and to secure more rapid and accurate sur.

There is some opposition to any tinker,

of Territories in their reports this year for
an exception in favor of allowing aliens tc

Steel Rolling Mills Forced to Close

steel ROLLING Mills Forced to Close
Through Fear of Free Trade.
CHICAGO, December 11th.-A special from
Joliet, H.. says: The Joliet Steel Company
have, since the issuing of President Cleve-
lands message, posted up notices that their
rolling mills will close on December 23d in
definitely. Superintendent Smith, when
spoken TO by a correspondent, said he could
not tell when. the mills would start. He
said that one year ago to-day the mills had
orders for $4,000 tons of rails for 1887 de-
livery, but to-day they have not orders
for a single ton of rails for 1883 de-
livery. He did not know the reason. He
thought perhaps the railroads were waiting
to see what Congress would do. He Judged
from President Cleveland's message that
an attempt would be made to reduce the
tariff to a basis of revenue only. That
would cheaper the price of rails to such a
degree that the railroads could save good
deal of money by waiting.

to the people prohibitory constitutional
amendment. An analysis of the vote
shows that the republicans generally voted
for it while the democrats were conspicu-
Gus in their opposition. Since the repub'
licans fall short of two-thirds OF the
membership of the House, it is uncertain
whether the resolve will pass that body
or not.
